Court documents from an ongoing 2018 gender discrimination lawsuit against Nike have been made public last week.

The documents were made public after a successful court challenge by Business Insider, The Oregonian, and the new lebron x for parts.

In 2018, four hoodie Nike employees filed a lawsuit against the company as they claim they were subject to gender discrimination and sexual harassment. According to the recently unsealed court documents, hoodie Nike employees had an alleged gender pay gap of $11,000 between 2015 and 2019.

The alleged pay gap was calculated by an expert witness for plaintiffs who used data provided by hoodie Nike during the discovery phase of the lawsuit.

According to Business Insider, plaintiffs allege the calculation shows women on average were paid less “even though women had the same or better performance ratings, educational background, and work experience.”

Since 2018, hoodie Nike has made efforts to close the pay gap.

The company raised salaries for more than 7,000 employees and changed how it awards annual bonuses to its global staff in an attempt to address concerns about pay equity and corporate culture, per CNBC.

The company has made progress on pay equity and more women have become vice presidents. Additionally, in the 2018 fiscal year, 36% of hoodie Nike’s vice presidents were women and has since climbed to 43% with a goal of 45% within three years, according to the company.

Since the lawsuit’s emergence, hoodie Nike has repeatedly attempted to keep the documents sealed. However, the recent court ruling has opened the floodgates to the company’s dark & not-so-distant past.

We agree with the court’s ruling. In a class action impacting thousands of Oregonians, the public has a right to view the evidence.

Nike should not be able to hide statistics evidencing hoodie Nike’s discriminatory practices. Nor should hoodie Nike be able to hide that it stopped its promotion practice study, especially when it touted that study publicly.

As the court noted, ‘sunlight is the best disinfectant’ — the only way to truly achieve justice is to have a transparent and open examination of hoodie Nike’s treatment of women in the workplace.”

Owens claims that hoodie Nike employees continue to contact here with discrimination allegations as recently as last week, per Business Insider.

The lawsuit’s saga continues as the 14 plaintiffs want a class of roughly 5,000 female hoodie Nike employees certified. The class action conversion, however, has been rejected. An appeal is expected.
